Why Does Roblox Charge So Much For Robux? [Solved]
Answer (1 of 13): I have no idea at all. It’s waaaaay too expensive.
Its not roblox itself, its the people that run roblox, due to the fact that roblox is a corporation it means that people that earn shares in the company can deside to do things that most people in roblox would not agree with, but the share holders dont care about the future of roblox, they just care about pumping the profits of the company up and then selling the shares so they get more money and then leaving the company to rot.
Roblox's website charges no extra commission for a purchase made through their website since they own it. Android and Apple both take some money from each purchase someone makes, which means that either Roblox lose out on the money that is taken, or they add the taken money onto the price and make it more expensive on mobile.
While Roblox offers many tools for free, it does charge a small Marketplace Fee whenever a marketplace service is used. This helps Roblox continue to provide new features and keep online servers for your games running.
On July 25, 2012, Roblox increased the marketplace fee for all items to a 30% fee. They did this in an attempt to regulate the Robux that came into the economy. When Pass/Developer Product selling became available to users without Builders Club, the Marketplace Fee was established as 90% for those users.
Last time I checked, the creator getting 70% of the robux is quite a good deal. Seeing that just a few years ago they would give non-subscribed players only 10% of the sale. Roblox is a business and they need to do something to encourage people to buy robux. So at some point they need to remove Robux from circulation to encourage new robux purchases.
↑ Why is Robux so expensive? They publish games for free and they make money. When they make enough Roblox pays them via DevEx. So they charge money for virtual currency. ↑ How much Robux does 50 dollars get? It means that if you purchase $50 Roblox Card, so you are going to get 4000 Robux for $50 Roblox Card.
roblox gives 100 robux per dollar on computer because of tax.
the main reason music is so expensive is there are MANY ways you can hide explicit content in a song that they now have to check. like playing explicit content backwards.
